The homoleptic organocerium complex Ce{C( SiHMe2)(3)}(3) (1) reacts with B(C6F5)(3) to produce the zwitter-ionic bis(alkyl) hydridoborato Ce{C(SiHMe2)(3)} 2HB(C6F5)(3) (2). NMR and IR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography indicate that each alkyl ligand contains two bridging Ce(H-Si interactions in both 1 and 2. Compound 2 serves as a precatalyst for the hydrosilylation of acrylates to give a-silyl esters at room temperature with a turnover number of 2200.
